City of Langley stops morality crusade

Over the last month, I've posted about a proposed change to the City of Langley's zoning bylaw that would have prohibited a laundry list of what some people might consider morally objectionable businesses in the City of Langley. There were two letters opposed to the blanket banning of uses in the City of Langley at the public hearing held on March 19th and I'm happy to report that common sense prevailed and Council ended up amending the zoning bylaw to only prevent non-licensed medicinal marijuana dispensary and "teen dance clubs" from being acceptable business uses.

A roundtable discussion ensued arriving at a consensus that the bylaw move forward including the information contained in the first two bullets of the explanatory note (community centre and medicinal marijuana dispensary issues) but without the C3 zone prohibited uses.

About Me

I am a resident of Langley City. I moved to the Lower Mainland after completing school to work at a local television station.
I advocate for creating sustainable and accessible communities.
Sustainability to me means building a community that will meet the needs of all who choose to live, work, or establish a business in their community today and into the future. It means building a community where small businesses can succeed, which provides services for all members of the community, and that protects the environment. It also means working hard to ensure that the services which a city provides remain affordable.
